Brock Purdy. The 49ers quarterback wasn’t prolific, but he was competent. He made all the right reads, keeping his team in good position all night en route to completing 25 of 37 passes for 310 yards and two touchdowns. He is now 8-0 as an NFL regular season starter.
Unsung Hero
Deebo Samuel. The Giants defense has no answer for the versatile 49ers receiver, who has caught six passes for 129 yards and a touchdown.
Zero
Daniel Jones. The Giants quarterback never returned to the game he had played four days earlier in Arizona. He completed 22 of 32 passes for just 137 yards with one touchdown and one interception, and had a passer rating of 64.2.
